Full Tilt Poker MTOPS Returns with $1,000,000 Guarantee

The Micro Turbo Online Poker Series (MTOPS) will start this Sunday, October 13th on Full Tilt Poker.

This years series will feature 75 events which will be played over a 15 day period.

The Main Event which will be the featured event and will close out the series will take place on October 27th and will have a $500,000 guarantee.

The Main Event will be played via the No Limit Holdem Turbo tournament rules and will feature a starting stack of 10,000 chips and the buy-in will be $14 + $1 with each player being able to re-buy for up to 8 times.

All of the MTOPS events will have the Full Tilt Poker exclusive multi-entry tournament format which helps in many cases surpass the guaranteed prize pool.

This years MTOPS will in total have over $1,000,000 in combined guarantees.

One of the nice things about the MTOPS is the fact that many events offer insanely low buy-ins as they start at as little as $0.55 or 100 Full Tilt Points.

If those numbers are a little rich for your blood then you can win a seat to any MTOPS event via a satellite for as little as $0.11 or just 5 Full Tilt Points.

The series will also have three Pro Bounty Events which will award the player who is able to knock out any of the sponsored pros a cool $100 cash.

The current players who are considered sponsored pros on Full Tilt Poker are Gus Hansen, Viktor “Isildur1” Blom, Martins Adeniya and Dermot Blain.
